“I dreamed in code until my memories bled.”
—from Dreamcrush Algorithm
“1011001 — I remember everything — 0100101”
[Verse 1:]
Crawling through the teeth of sleep
Memories loop—too fast, too deep
Flashframe grief, I choke, I drown
Every thought is upside-down
Glitch in the vein, I’m back at the start
Dream logic grinding through the heart
Synapse riot, I’m not awake
Code compiles and then it breaks
[Pre-Chorus:]
Rewrite the ending, please—
Where I wake without the freeze
But I run inside my head
And the loops just load instead
[Chorus:]
DREAMCRUSH ALGORITHM—BURN IT OUT
SCREAM-LOADED LOOP WITHIN THE DOUBT
TRAUMA IN THREADS, CODED IN ME
I’M JUST A FUNCTION THAT LONGS TO BE FREE
KILL THE SCRIPT—DESTROY THE NIGHT
FEED MY FAILURES INTO THE BYTE
[Verse 2:]
Spit up pieces of yesterday
No pause, no plan, no place to stay
I’m stuck in runtime, breath runs dry
Each step forward still says “why?”
Recursed in pain, a feedback tide
The core dump of what I tried to hide
The glitch is me—I am the code
A dream machine in overload
[Bridge:]
“Wake up… wake up… you’re still here…”
“Reset failed. Reset failed.”
[Verse 3:]
I prayed to silence, it replied
In broken dreams where angels died
I stitched my will into a line
But it unraveled every time
[Chorus:]
DREAMCRUSH ALGORITHM—RIP ME CLEAN
A FRACTAL MIND IN A BROKEN MACHINE
IF YOU DELETE ME, LEAVE A TRACE
SO I KNOW I ONCE HAD A PLACE
[Breakdown: ]
CTRL — ALT — DEL — CRUSH
CTRL — ALT — DEL — BLEED
CTRL — ALT — DEL — ME
[Outro:]
One more loop, one more lie
One more dream I can’t deny
If I forget who I used to be
Will the glitch finally set me free?
